  • Now that the clocks have gone back we are all riding more miles in the dark. Make sure you are being safe and being seen with the right cycling lights for the type of riding that you are doing.
    In this video Dave and Liam go through what you need to consider when buying a set of lights.
    Sponsored by Cateye. We have a variety of lights from Cateye's cycling range to show you the what more lumens actually looks like.

    Еще не маловажную роль в задних фонарях имеет место быть, стоп сигналу, очень удобная опция, только не понятно почему при наборе высоты фонарь загорается ярче, как стоп сигнал 😅 , кто подскажет причину ? У меня SYNC Kinetic.

    I use Fenix bc 30 v2 loads of light to ride on tracks in the pitch black, with a full charge it runs for 2 hours on lower settings it runs up to eight hours but can run longer on even lower settings.

    I have a front light and a rear light from Lupine Lightning Systems. The lamps are expensive but really bright and partly StVZO approved (for Germany). I can fully recommend the lamps.

    Nice explainer 👍 but shouldn’t this video be labeled as an advertorial?

    What about options for attaching to a bar bag?

    • @roadcc

      it's the same advice as for a rear light really: make sure that whatever light you choose has a mount for your specific use case. if you're running a bar bag then attaching to the fork crown is often a better bet than attaching to the bag itself

    The cheap USB ones on eBay :-). I have had them for 4 years, £14 for the set! It's not a paid ad for Cat Eye lights "Honest"! I will now unsub!

    This was really helpful. Its nice to see a gay couple do bike reviews. Anyway do you ride after dark with lots of people or just each other?

    Cat eye kinda sucks compared to Lezyne and a few others but that didn’t stop you from playing a dirty trick on us but we’re knowing your tricks.
